*1: If one or more wheels spin on a rough or slippery road for 40 seconds or more, the ABS warning lamp will illuminate. This does not
indicate a malfunction. Only in the case of the short-circuit (Code Nos. 26, 22, 32 and 36), after repair the ABS warning lamp also illu-
minates when the ignition switch is turned ON. In this case, drive the vehicle at speeds greater than 30 km/h (19 MPH) for approxi-
mately 1 minute as specified in ªSELF-DIAGNOSIS PROCEDUREº, BR-41. Check to ensure that the ABS warning lamp goes out while
the vehicle is being driven.

How to Perform Trouble Diagnoses for Quick
and Accurate Repair
NBBR0098INTRODUCTIONNBBR0098S01The ABS system has an electronic control unit to control major
functions. The control unit accepts input signals from sensors and
instantly drives the actuators. It is essential that both kinds of sig-
nals are proper and stable. It is also important to check for conven-
tional problems: such as air leaks in booster lines, lack of brake
fluid, or other problems with the brake system.
It is much more difficult to diagnose a problem that occurs intermit-
tently rather than continuously. Most intermittent problems are
caused by poor electric connections or faulty wiring. In this case,
careful checking of suspicious circuits may help prevent the
replacement of good parts.
A visual check only may not find the cause of the problems, so a
road test should be performed.
Before undertaking actual checks, take a few minutes to talk with
a customer who approaches with an ABS complaint. The customer
is a very good source of information on such problems; especially
intermittent ones. By talking to the customer, find out what symp-
toms are present and under what conditions they occur. Start your
diagnosis by looking for ªconventionalº problems first. This is one
of the best ways to troubleshoot brake problems on an ABS con-
trolled vehicle.
Also check related Service bulletins for information.

1 CHECK BRAKE FLUID
Check brake fluid for contamination.
Has brake fluid been contaminated?
Ye s©Replace. GO TO 2.
No©GO TO 2.
2 CHECK BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
Check brake fluid level in reservoir tank.
Low fluid level may indicate brake pad wear or leakage from brake line.

Is brake fluid filled between MAX and MIN lines on reservoir tank?
Ye s©GO TO 3.
No©Fill up brake fluid. GO TO 3.
3 CHECK BRAKE LINE
Check brake line for leakage.
